请教各位达达，我准备做EMSA，如果做SUPER-SHIFT的话，该选择原装抗体还是分装的抗体呢，盼不吝赐教！
看到一篇EMSA的文章，不知道里面有没有回答你的问题哈，不过英文的值得阅读哈。
GEL SUPER-SHIFT ASSAY/ EMSA
Materials/Reagents:
See Gel-shift assay
Procedure:
1. Prepare Whole Cell Extract. Make sure every solution DOES NOT contain DTT.
2. Add 1 or 2 μl of non-diluted monoclonal antibody (4B4 is better than 10H8 for HSF1) or
1/10 diluted polyclonal antibody to 10 μg of whole cell extract from HeLa in 5 μl of
Buffer C; incubate on ice for 30 min. (Monoclonal antibody does not disturb HSF1-DNA
binding activity.)
Following steps are the same as normal gel shift:
3. Add reaction mix containing 1-10 fmol (~0.1 ng) of 32P-labeled probe and 0.5 μg of
poly(dI/dC) in 20 μl of 1X Binding buffer. Incubate at RT for 20 min.
4. Add 2 μl of loading dye, load total amount of the sample on 4% 0.25X TBE gel which
has been pre-run for at least 20 min in 0.25X TBE buffer.
5. Electorophoresis with 100-130 V in 0.25X TBE buffer for 3 hours.
You may use 18 cm-height gel system and stop running after dye front comes to 12 cm
point from the top. When a gel was run with 130 V, the current was less than 20 mA. You
could run a gel with 100V. It might give better separation.
Troubleshooting/Critical Parameters:
• The reaction mixture MUST NOT contain DTT, because DTT kills antibody.
• Polyclonal antibody of HSF1 can be added after mixing of WCE and DNA probe. In that
case, the antibody should be added in 1:100 to 1:500 final dilution.
• For Hsp70, 3A3 and C92 did work, 4G4 and 5A5 did not. 3A3 may be used 1 μl/
sample.
• HSE probe must have high-specific activity (>10,000 cpm/fmol) and be double-stranded.
• If you did not have good separation or running, you should newly prepare acrylamide and
TBE stock solution.
